- Comment on First sodium battery urban e-bike offers 45-mile range and operates in cold weather without capacity loss 5 days ago:
Totally. But what if we left it where we found it?
I get the economics of the situation (capitalism, etc) , I’m just saying…if there is salt already safely and naturally found underground, why not leave it there and use this byproduct salt that we don’t know what to do with?

Is the ratio of salt produced as a byproduct of desalination of ocean water out of whack compared to the amount used in battery production?

She’s making America’s president look bad, so that’s a big boost.
- Comment on Starfield's abandoned gore and dismemberment system sure would have made it less grey 5 days ago:
I know it’s just me in this case, but gore and dismemberment would not have improved this, or any, gaming experience.

I looked at their Google reviews, photos did not look promising.

Is it any good?
- Comment on Treat taking a dump like a sport 2 weeks ago:
I feel like I saw this on a nature doc, but can’t find any references now. Wild dog packs defecate before hunting, but not for the energy boost. The zoomies are to ensure they leave the scent of their poo in the dust, to minimize the chance of the scent causing them to spook their prey. But a dog doesn’t consciously know that, it’s just a naturally selected behavior that has made them better at surviving.
Do not quote me on this, my all natural intelligence may be hallucinating.

Just like my Nonna used to make it.

Imagine a fry basket full of pasta, and instead of oil it’s hot water.
- Comment on My favorite 2 weeks ago:
You tellin’ me they don’t eat pasta and meat sauce in Italia?
Don’t let none of these chuckleheads tell you the OG isn’t Italian. It’s as Italian as apple pie.
Next they’ll say Fazolis isn’t even a real word, and you shouldn’t cook pasta like french fries.

Somehow I knew it was going to be a 737 8 Max.
- Comment on US lawmakers back Covid Chinese lab leak theory after two-year probe 1 month ago:
Man, you sound like you were on this panel of geniuses. “Of course it came from a Chinese lab, but I have no proof so just trust me. Unless it didn’t come from a lab.”
- Comment on Belgium's sex workers get maternity leave and pensions under world-first law 1 month ago:
It seems obvious to me you lack the perspective and experience to make such a claim, no matter how much ayahuasca you’ve used.

- Comment on 'We are essentially in a new Gilded Age’: As workers get laid off, CEOs and shareholders gobble up hundreds of billions in profits 2 months ago:
The fact this is coming from Fortune is peak talking-out-of-both-sides-of-your-mouth. “We’re living in a gilded age, now here’s our ranking of the top 500 companies ensuring the boot stays on your neck.”
- Comment on McDonald’s posts biggest decline in global sales in four years 2 months ago:
Might be market specific, I would regularly get 30% off coupons at my nearest one and not at the one further away owned by a different franchisee.

Looks interesting, although the protagonist runs like they have a full diaper.
- Comment on [Tom Warren] The PS5 Pro still hasn’t sold out in the US or UK. Looks like the $700 price point will mean this console will be readily available this holiday 3 months ago:
It’s mainly the colors, but it came with some extras as well. And a paperclip.
Like I said, about $300 overpriced even with the additional items and only hyped due to limited edition. How many times has Nintendo released a console in NES colors without making it limited? Just a ridiculous move by Sony.
- Comment on [Tom Warren] The PS5 Pro still hasn’t sold out in the US or UK. Looks like the $700 price point will mean this console will be readily available this holiday 3 months ago:
I would have paid $700 for the Pro if it came with everything the 30th anniversary edition had, and maybe a little more if it also included the Portal.
Unfortunately, Sony can’t stop tripping over their own incompetence and limited the units to 12,300 for a reason that can be simplified to be: “money.” So it sold out in less than a minute to scalper’s bots and can now be found on eBay for five times the price.

You went to the toilet just to take this photo. Don’t take it as a criticism, I would have, too.
- Comment on The reason we don’t see exploding battery attacks more often is not because it’s technically hard, it’s because the erosion of public trust in everyday things isn’t worth it. 3 months ago:
I think there may be a couple edits needed in your comment. Reread slowly and get back to us.
